Please confirm your shipping address carefully when placing your order. We recommend using an address where you have successfully received packages in the past.

We are not responsible for delivery delays or lost packages caused by incorrect or incomplete address information provided by the customer.

You may request to change or cancel your order within 6 hours of receiving the order confirmation email by contacting us at support@pupsays.com. After 6 hours, we cannot guarantee that the cancellation will be successful. If cancellation is no longer possible, the order will proceed to shipment as scheduled.
- For Customized Products:
Once payment is confirmed for a customized or personalized product, the order cannot be canceled or modified. Please review your order carefully before submitting payment.
1.3 General Notes:
- If your order has already been shipped, cancellations are no longer possible. You may refer to our Returns and Refund Policy for instructions on how to handle unwanted items.
- In cases where cancellations are successfully processed, any applicable fees for order handling or customization may be deducted from your refund.
